10/11/10 Somehow when one realizes that she has more earthly years behind her than ahead of her, whole new perspectives are gleaned from scripture. The end is not scary when one knows her eternal destiny but the way one might enter that heavenly realm might give pause for thought. “Gentle entry” has a nice ring to it. Yet, I have been at the point where I was so present with the Lord and so filled with His grace, that no fears were present.
With all of that in mind, whatever your spiritual age or chronological age, think on this verse.
For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. (Jeremiah 29:11)
